That's a little hard to choose from. I'd say learn about the faith first, then ask why people believe.

Studying how the things people believe in are thought of, the morals they have yet.

When explaining why they chose a particular religion, people will quite inevitably mention its tenets, or at least some of them - and if they don't, you may go there yourself. It's certainly deeper and more interesting to ask why.

It is hard to decide. They both intrest me greatly and one inevitably leads to the other.

I had to grab the 1/4 point because, to me, the two are inextricably intertwined. What a faith teaches explains its appeal and its appeal informs a person of what it teaches. Studying either one without the other gives an incomplete picture...knowing the what without the why or the why without the what doesn't really enable you to engage people in conversation and just doesn't give enough knowledge, at least for me.
